Umpire Joe West Says Phillies Pitcher Cannot Refer.
(No pictures exist, sadly, of the backpack that was stuffed with clanking beer bottles that we slipped past the ticket-taker. So: Here are some pictures from Game 154 in 1982, which the Yankees won 6-2. And that's why #51 (Reid Nichols) in standing next to right fielder Dwight Evans instead of Fred Lynn (#19) during a pitching change. There was a #11 in 1982, infielder Dave Stapleton, and seeing him in a group alongside Jerry Remy, who played for both the 19 teams, makes sense. Dennis Eckerlsey started both games for the Red Sox and - amazingly - he was relieved by Tom Burgmeier both times. Looking at them, I can see how I was fooled. Ray and I were at Fenway on September 25, 1982, and that is where all of these pictures were taken! Not 1978, but a little more than four years later. From what little I remembered, I tried to figure it out - and these pictures prove that my guess was correct. Was THIS the game I had tried to find with a "Tracer" in 2008? My friend Ray and I had gone to Fenway in 1982, but I did not know which game we saw. Plus, there were several pictures taken from right field - both before and during the game, something I know the 14-year-old me did not do. The visiting pitcher's number listed on the scoreboard belonged, not to Ron Guidry, who I saw pitch, but to Domingo Ramos, who had made his major league debut the night before.
A Boston player was wearing #11, a number no one wore in 1978. Sparky Lyle's number was being wore by a black man and there was a white guy at first base for the Red Sox instead of George Scott. While preparing this post for the 1978 anniversary date and trying to identify various players, I kept running into problems. I have pictures, but from a different game. At the end of that post, I said I had also converted some slides from a Red Sox/Yankees game on September 9, 1978. The 1986 Boston Red Sox won the League Championship Series.On August 22, I posted some pictures I took at my first game at Fenway Park, way back in 1976.
